Hey so it seems like The Long Dark is the survival game I've been waiting for.
Setup: First-person. Your plane just crashed in northern canada. Try not to die.
I'm a couple hours in and so far it's excellent. On sale right now!

My experience in The Long Dark just before wrapping up the session:
Starting to get hypothermic and it's snowing, but there's a wolf shadowing me so I can't stop to try and start a fire. Didn't have any torches prepped. Just... keep walking and hope I can find some shelter and stay ahead of the wolf before I can't keep walking anymore.
